Zhu Yuan is a limited S Rank agent who will be playable in the second phase of version 1.0. If you want to know more about her, please follow and see the ultimate build guide of Zhu Yuan!
Zhu Yuan Basic Introduction
Zhu Yuan is an Aether-Attribute, Attack character with exceptional single-target capabilities. She can accumulate "Enhanced Shotshell" stacks through [Chain Skills], [EX Special Attack] and [Ultimate]. By using [Basic Attacks], she can unleash all "Enhanced Shotshell" attacks in a short period, dealing massive damage and accumulating Aether Anomaly.
Zhu Yuan Build Guide Overview
The following picture is a summarized version of Zhu Yuan Build Guide.
Zhu Yuan Skill Priority
1. Zhu Yuan deals almost all her damage by Enhanced Basic Attacks, so prioritize upgrading it.
2. Special Attack and Ultimate are ways to trigger Zhu Yuan's Enhanced Basic Attacks and are used frequently, so they should be the next priority for upgrades.
3. While Zhu Yuan's dodge attacks do considerable damage, the delay before the Dodge is a little annoying, making it a lower priority for enhancement.
4. Assist skill is not recommended for upgrade when your materials are insufficient.
5. Core Skills are all important for Zhu Yuan. Unlock all of them if possible, or you can choose to unlock A, B, D and F first.
Zhu Yuan Best W-Engines
1. Best Choice: Riot Suppressor Mark VI
Riot Suppressor Mark VI is Zhu Yuan's signature W-Engine and undoubtedly the most suitable W-Engine for her. Aside from the large amount of CRIT DMG it provides, unconditional Aether bonus makes it a perfect weapon. It can also grant charge stacks when the equipper activates [EX Special Attack], and consume them to increase damage by unleashing [Basic Attacks].
2. Secondary Choice: Cannon Rotor
Cannon Rotor can be obtained by unlocking New Eridu City Fund. It is a strong Attack-Typed W-Engine. The advanced stats and effect of this W-Engines can provide generous CRIT Rate for the equipper, making it the best A-Rank W-Engine available.
3. Budget Choice: Starlight Engine & Street Superstar
The Starlight Engine W-Engine can be redeemed from the W-Engines shop. It is an average choice for Zhu Yuan and can be used as a placeholder until you obtain one of the superior W-Engines.
Street Superstar is available in banners and pairs well with Attack Agent, provided you can execute Chain Attacks proficiently. After accumulating 3 stacks, you can unleash the Ultimates for maximum damage!
Zhu Yuan Best Drive Discs
1. Best Option: Woodpecker Electro (4) + Chaotic Metal (2)
Usually, Attack Agents are recommended to use Woodpecker Electro (2) and the Metal set (4) that matches their attribute. However, Zhu Yuan is an exception. Chaotic Metal is unique because it applies a debuff to the enemy rather than buffing the wearer. This means Zhu Yuan doesn’t need to be the one wearing Chaotic Metal (4).
Currently, the likely teammate for Zhu Yuan is Nicole. If Nicole is equipped with Chaotic Metal (4), Zhu Yuan doesn’t need to be. So the best Drive Discs option for Zhu Yuan is Woodpecker Electro (4) + Chaotic Metal (2). Woodpecker Electro can provide CRIT Rate and ATK buffs, and Chaotic Metal can increase Zhu Yuan's Ether DMG.
Other possible choice:
Chaotic Metal (4) + Woodpecker Electro (2), if Nicole isn't equipped with Chaotic Metal (4) or Zhu Yuan is in a CISRT team without Nicole/Ether support.
2. Beginner Option: Doom Grindcore (4) + Monsoon Funk (2)
Doom Grindcore offers a boost to CRIT Rate, making it suitable for Main DPS characters who rely on critical hits for maximum damage output. Additionally, Monsoon Funk enhances Zhu Yuan's performance by increasing her PEN Ratio, thereby allowing his attacks to penetrate defenses more effectively and deal greater damage to enemies.
Zhu Yuan Drive Disc Stats
Main Stats
• (4) Crit Rate%/Crit DMG%
• (5) PEN Ratio%/Ether DMG%
• (6) ATK%/Energy Regen%
Substats
Crit Rate%/Crit DMG% > ATK% > PEN > ATK
All in all, the most important stats of Zhu Yuan are Crit Rate, Crit DMG, ATK and PEN Ratio. So make sure all the stats needed suffice.
Zhu Yuan Best Teams
Usually, when building a team in ZZZ, we should put Agents of the same Attribute or Faction in a team to activate strong passive buffs. Since there is no other Agents in CISRT, the core teammate of Zhu Yuan for now would be Nicole, the only Agent who shares the same Ether Attribute. The last choice can be Lycaon or Anby. Thus, the most suitable teams for Zhu Yuan would be as follows.
• Zhu Yuan (Attack) + Nicole (Support) + Lycaon (Stun) + Butler (Bangboo)
• Zhu Yuan (Attack) + Nicole (Support) + Anby (Stun) + Devilboo (Bangboo)
In conclusion, Zhu Yuan stands out as a formidable S Rank agent in the second phase of version 1.0, offering exceptional single-target damage through her unique abilities and enhanced attacks. By following this Zhu Yuan build guide, we hope all players can unlock Zhu Yuan's full capabilities and dominate the battlefield!
